If you haven't heard of us before...
Space Wizard Science Fantasy is a queer science fiction and fantasy indie publishing company started in 2016 to publish William C. Tracy's books. Ten books, six years, a pandemic, and quitting a day job later, the publishing company opened its doors to more authors. Our intent has always been to showcase quality science fiction and fantasy stories with queer characters, because they don't get enough exposure in the publishing world.
- In 2022, the Space Wizard Science Fantasy Year 1 Kickstarter raised nearly $18,000 to pay authors top rates, create amazing book covers, fund an audiobook recording, and publish 12 books between June 2022 and June 2023.
- In 2023, Year 2 raised over $18,000 for 12 more books released from June 2023 to June 2024 with more excellent covers, custom illustrations, and pro rates for our anthology writers! This year we added exclusive collector's hardbacks!
- In 2024, Year 3 raised over $17,000 for 14 books and two new TTRPG systems! released from June 2024 to June 2025, including a new anthology and RPGs! sequels to some of our most popular books!,
In the same year, we ran Lesbians in Space for Booktopia, raising another almost $11,000 for an anthology of 21 stories, including 4 by Hugo award nominated and winning authors!
Now we bring you Space Wizard Science Fantasy Year 4, with 14 new books, including sequels to some of our most popular stories! This first half, Part 1, will release the first 7 books, with all of them released by the end of the year. Part 2 will be coming in November 2025 and will release through June 2026!
